i dont know, But gees if they sell a tent designed to have a open door you would think they would have a switch to turn that stuff off.

Thanks for the advice and replys, Well it sounds the same first start or hot, actually my get a little quieter as it runs and warms up. i also i noticed and the guy that is using it noticed that it appears to be a little quieter , i would not say it is cured i`m just hope full. if it blows up i guess i can change the engine easy enough.. a ej.2.2 with 115k miles with rod knock must have had a abusive past life. when i got the car the oil was black and 2 quarts low, with a blown HG , bad Cam censor thanks

yes took it apart and threadloc and tightened back up

ok here is the vid , noisy engine

I will pull a valve cover and get some pics, how do i post a video? says its to big its only 10 seeconds or so, i am working on posting a vid, Thanks

i replaced the tensioner along with timing belt and pulleys, head gaskets, the engine was noisy before i did this work, also the power steering pump bearing was shot and that made noise, i replaced that , but still noisy, i am sure its not the tensioner slapping around. I pulled one valve cover but i dont remember if it had a set screw on the end, i am not sure how to tell the difference between lifters, i am learning as i go, i will try and fix what ever it turns out to be, the heads were flat and no smoke at start up so i didnt have the heads rebuilt when i did the HG. maybe i should of.

i put new seal in the oil pump when i did the timing belt, thanks
